    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Extremely food driven diamondback terrapin hatchling absolutely hates zoomed pellets. He somewhat ate them at first, but now either ignores them or if put into his food, he will spit them out and then eat his food. if his food is scented with a mash of the pellets he will ignore it, he really hates zoomed hatchling pellets. He gets a very diverse diet of various live, fresh, and frozen seafood (Shrimp, squid, silversides, pieces of whatever fish I happen to catch, clam, live fiddler crab, live Asian shore crab, crushed sea snail, sandworm). He gets a diverse diet but i am worried about his vitamin intake since much of what he eats is frozen, and I don't know nutritional facts of the live seafood he gets. The only other food he does not like besides pellets is mussel. Please recommend a pellet food that will ensure proper vitamin intake.
